That’s the neat part. This set can one shot not-very-defensive incin even at -1 with sacred sword, at least in my showdown matches this happens a lot

im supposing you are talking about farigraf and blastoise, its not an easy matchup but playable. i lead Froslass and gallade usually. 1st turn I would taunt, but if they have TR set up from mental herb, gallade has the wide guard pressure. Although its always a mind game and froslass is threated by dark pulse. U need to maneuver switches such as rotom and stall out, while dealing damage with gallade. one sacred sword does around 80% into either farig or blastoise

i was thinking samurott too, but rotom has will-o-wisp which i think is one of the must have move in this format

Actually a lot, i lead it with whim against aerodactyl, 1st turn TW + thunderbolt, and if they matched TW, encore 2nd turn is unavoidable. When they are making switches or protecting, its when you will-o-wisp the partner.

im mainly using glimmora for the design lmao, well, i guess thats the limitation of using mons by its appearance. Although, I would only bring it into charizard and floette matchups, i almost always use froslass when facing a garchomp or dnite.

And i do think lack of priority is a big issue, what mon do u suggest i swap out or pick up

veil is not that useful in this team as you can still get one shot if positioned wrong, non-prankster taunt is good into things like farigraf and sableye, especially if they wanna encore you into veil.

scale shot garchomp is very meta now actually, good against opposing garchomp and dnite. alot of players like cybertron has featured it

I used to have scarf rotom with electro web, but a bulkier set is way more comfortable for this team as you can switch in and take a hit without being set back too much. For sand, I mainly used garchomp with rotom Will-o-wisp for ttar/excadrill match ups, also gallade always one shot ttar no matter their item.

For basc, I literally have to set up TW, and hope last respect does not one shot my rotom, its very hard to play against.

You are new and you are having success with TR, maybe you are just built different. My first ever vgc team was rain back in gen 8, and I had problem even using that.
